Bootstrap resampling to determine the confidence interval and effect size estimates of the effects of fetal sex. Median bootstrap effect sizes (solid dot) and 95% confidence interval (error bars) for miRNAs which have a non-zero containing confidence interval during sex-segregated resampling. Second and third trimester HEa vs. UE estimates are shown. The miRNA identities of MIMAT numbers (unique accession numbers assigned by miRBase.org) represented in this figure are in Additional file 5. The dashed line indicates zero effect size. The 95% confidence intervals for the resampling distributions for each miRNA were estimated through computing the 2.5 and 97.5 quantiles of the bootstrapped values
